WHAT IS IN A
MORTGAGE
PAYMENT?

There are several factors, including the down payment amount and the loan program, that determine
the components of your monthly mortgage payment.

PRINCIPAL The portion of your monthly payment that is applied towards
INTEREST lowering the balance of your loan.

TAXES The portion of your monthly payment that covers the interest
accrued the previous month on the balance of the loan. Interest
INSURANCE is what a lender charges you for borrowing money.
HOA FEE
Property Taxes are assessed by the county and are based on the
(Home Owners Association) sales price. 1/12th of the annual property tax bill can be included
in your monthly payment.
Mello Roos are special tax assessments charged to homeowners
used to pay back the cost of infrastructure improvements in
certain communities. If applicable, Mello Roos would be included
in your property tax bill.
Homeowners Insurance covers damage to your property from
theft and fire. 1/12th of the annual premium can be included in
your monthly payment.
Mortgage Insurance (PMI OR MIP) if required, protects the
lender in the event of a default on the loan.
Flood Insurance is required for properties in flood hazard areas.

Not included in the monthly mortgage payment to the lender.
An HOA Fee is paid directly to the Condo Association/Property
Management Company for the maintenance of the community.
HOA Fees may cover the insurance on the exterior or all of the unit.

LOCKING IN YOUR
INTEREST RATE

 What is a rate lock?

A rate lock is an agreement between you (the borrower) and us (the lender) that a specific interest
rate will be provided to you for a specific period of time (the rate lock period).
 When is my rate locked?
We will confirm and lock your interest rate with your verbal or written authorization.

 What if rates go up before I close my loan?

If interest rates increase, you are protected and can be assured that your locked rate will be honored
on your loan papers on the date of closing. We will NOT ask you to pay a higher interest rate simply
because the market has worsened. If necessary, the rate lock period can be extended for a fee.

 If rates appear to be dropping, why shouldn’t I wait to lock a rate?

Ask yourself what gives you more peace of mind:
» Lock a rate and possibly miss a lower rate if the market shifts after you lock? OR
» Not Lock a rate and face a higher rate because of market shifts?
It is our objective as advisors to assist you in determining an optimal time to lock an interest rate given
our professional assessment of market conditions as well as your objectives. Keep in mind that if rates
drop after you purchase the home, we can always refinance your loan after 7 months.

LENDER ORIGINATION CHARGES - The fees charged by the Lender for processing
FEES and underwriting of the loan application (processing fee and underwriting fee).
Other lenders may have additional fees such as an Application Fee and a
(these are the only Loan Origination Fee.
fees the lender DISCOUNT POINTS - A fee paid in exchange for a reduced interest rate. Also

your Loan Officer for specific details.

THIRD APPRAISAL FEE - The fee paid to a qualified appraiser for preparing an
PARTY Appraisal Report which provides an opinion of market value for the property.
FEES This fee ranges from $495 to $800+, depending on the value of the home and
the complexity of the report. When significant repairs are noted on the appraisal
a re-inspection by the appraiser will be required to ensure work is complete. The
re-inspection report may cost up to $150.

FLOOD CERTIFICATION - Federal regulations and secondary mortgagors
require lenders to obtain a certification from a surveyor indicating whether the
property is within a flood hazard area and if flood insurance is required.
ESCROW FEES - The escrow company usually serves as a neutral intermediary
between all the parties involved in a real estate or mortgage transaction. The
escrow company handles the transfer of money between the parties. Once all
the terms and conditions of the transaction have been satisfied, the Seller will
get their proceeds and the Buyer will get the keys. The escrow fee may depend
on the amount of the loan or purchase price. Some escrow fees can also include:
Courier, Loan Tie-In, Email Fees, Archive Fee and Notary Fee. Every company has
its fee structure.
TITLE FEES - A Title company performs a title search which ensures there are
no outstanding issues with the property such as liens for unpaid taxes, special
assessments, judgements, demands, or other legal issues. Other Title related
fees include ENDORSEMENT FEE, WIRE & COURIER FEES.
TITLE INSURANCE - Homebuyers typically need two title insurance policies:
an Owner’s Policy which protects the homeowner and a Lender’s Policy which
protects the lender. Title insurance protects against problems with a title when
there is a transfer of property ownership.
RECORDING FEES - Fees paid to the County to record the new Deed of Trust,
ensuring that you are the new official owner of the property.

Understanding closing costs

RESERVES Think of this as your savings account within your home loan for taxes and
FOR AN insurance. When you close escrow, the lender will collect a certain number of
months upfront to setup the impound/escrow account so that sufficient monies
IMPOUND/ are available when the property tax and insurance premium is due. The number
ESCROW of months collected for property taxes depends on the exact month in which you
ACCOUNT close escrow. The lender usually collects 2 months of your insurance payment to
have as reserves. This is YOUR money and not a fee. When you sell or refinance
(if applicable) your home, you will receive a refund of any remaining balance in this impound/
escrow account.

In California, taxes are paid in 2 installments and are due by December 10th and
April 10th:

» Taxes due in December are for July 1 to Dec 31 of that year.
» Taxes due in April are for Jan 1 to June 30 of that year.

PREPAID PREPAID INTEREST - Prepaid interest is collected by the lender to pay for the
ITEMS interest charges for the remainder of the month during which the loan closes
escrow. I always say, “Mortgage - you pay back. Rent – you pay forward.” In
(Interest, Taxes other words, when you pay rent, you are paying for the upcoming month BUT a
and Insurance) mortgage payment covers the previous month’s interest.
Example - If you close escrow on January 10th, there are 21 days remaining in
the month. Therefore, you will be charged 21 days of interest for January. See the
example below.
First Payment Date - March 1st, this is why it feels like you got to “skip” a payment.
PREPAID INSURANCE - At the close of escrow, you will prepay the annual
premium for the Homeowner’s Insurance on your property. Your home will then
be insured for the 1st year.
PREPAID PROPERTY TAXES - At closing, the buyer is responsible for paying
the prorated property taxes due from the date of closing through the end of
the tax billing cycle. Similarly, the seller is responsible for paying the prorated
property taxes due from the start of the previous billing cycle through the close
of escrow date.

January February March

Close on January 10th - No payment due First payment due in March
21 days until the end of the month = in February for previous month’s interest.
